30 Day Blog Challenge | Days 11 to 20: Trying to catch up!

I don't follow instructions well.... or have a lot of time apparently! ;) Continuing to catch back up on this.... one big piece at a time!!

Favorite TV ShowsMy top 5 right this minute? In no particular order...1. Grey's Anatomy2. Glee3. Survivor 4. Amazing Race5. Real Housewives of __________.... ALL of them ;) lol!What I believeI believe everything happens for a reason. Even if you don't know what it is! I also believe that I am a lucky girl. :)

GoalsI've talked a lot about this.... still working on my 30 by 30 challenge. I'm in the home stretch.... I'll do a little update soon. I have two months left and I think I'm going to work!! :)

A Picture I LoveI found this one by accident looking for pictures of when we installed our hardwood floors. Cute Scarlet as a puppy!

You can't tell from the picture, but she was only 8 pounds and would fit entirely in the palm of your hand!! Love this picture!! :)Bible VerseI'm not one to talk religion much, publically or privately. I am pretty private about my beliefs and I believe in the freedom of people to choose whatever they want to believe in! That said, I'd have to choose this:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ~ Corinthians 13:4-7

Dream HouseToothpicks... Lots and lots of toothpicks. I jest. I put that just for Megan. Cause when I think of a dream house, I think of house plans and I go right back to 7th grade and toothpick houses. It made a strong impression... and I hope Megan wasn't taking a drink of anything when she read that. I don't want her to choke on her coffee or anything! ;) And yes Megan, I still hope to uncover the plans for the casa de toothpicks. I have a good idea where it may be and a plan to recover it! I'll keep you posted! ;)

What was the question? Oh yes. Dream house. I love our house we live in now... my dream would be to pick it up and move it onto ten acres somewhere in the mountains outside Sacramento. :)

Something I'm looking forward toMy niece!! I'm really getting anxious about it.... will she wait until her due date or make an early appearance like her big brother? I cannot WAIT to meet this little one!! :)

Something I regretI don't live my life with regrets, so I have to say I have no regrets!! :)

Something I missMy husband! This whole working away from home thing stinks. I miss him LOTS when he has to work away from home, but I am grateful for the fact that he's still working. I look forward to the day that he's working ten minutes from home and he's gone when I get home from work cause he's training for his next bike race! :)

NicknamesLast but not least for this marathon post..... I don't have many nicknames. I don't go by Mandy or anything! I do answer to "A" and sign e-mails that way many times... it's faster! The cute nephew calls me Amana. Those "d" sounds are still tough for him. ;) The husband calls me lots of things... hehe ;).... but most of the time it's Sweetie. My dad calls me Little Sprout. Other than that, I don't have any other nicknames that I know of!

ok... so since you are a real housewives fan... u ain't gonna believe this ... but its true... my bff is cousins with the sisters from real housewives of NJ... (i hope that made sense! LOL!)... yep.. the manzo mansion they kept showing.. been there a few times myself for family affairs .. the manzo's are my bff's family!! And ok... this next part sucks and I know you will totally feel bad for me on this one (LOL!)... MY DVR DIED last night... and UGH UGH UGH.. I had ALL this SEASON L&O LA and L&O SVU's recorded and they are ALL GONE!! BOOOOOOOO!!!! :( I am sooooooo upset! :( and i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee the photo of your puppy!
